A forum for happy minds.
Who are we?
Happiness Camp is Europe’s largest conference on human sustainability and the transformation of corporate culture. We address the critical challenges facing organizations today—fostering resilience, driving innovation, and building sustainable, high-performing workplaces across all functions and levels. From leadership and HR to marketing, operations, and beyond, our content is designed to inspire and equip every area of your organization.
This is not just a conference; it’s a movement. Combining cutting-edge research, actionable strategies, and real-world case studies, Happiness Camp brings together global leaders, industry pioneers, and change-makers to redefine the future of work.
Mission
To drive the evolution of organizations by equipping them with the strategies and tools to foster human sustainability. We empower leaders and teams across all business functions to build environments where people thrive, innovation flourishes, and organizational goals are achieved through a deep alignment with purpose and well-being.
Vision
To set the global standard for conferences on human sustainability and organizational transformation. Our vision is to be the go-to platform for top professionals and business leaders committed to reshaping their organizations, enhancing employee well-being, and driving sustainable success across every facet of the business.
Our purpose
The modern workplace is at a critical crossroads. According to the World Health Organization, burnout and mental health challenges are poised to become the second leading cause of disability globally. Portugal, in particular, faces the highest risk of work-related burnout in Europe, underscoring the urgency for action.
Happiness Camp was established to tackle this crisis head-on. As a non-profit organization, we exist to drive meaningful change in how businesses approach human sustainability. Our purpose is to provide a platform for leaders, professionals, and individuals to access cutting-edge knowledge, practical tools, and a network of like-minded peers dedicated to creating sustainable, people-centered organizations.
We believe that access to transformative learning should not be a privilege, which is why Happiness Camp is 100% free. This ensures that anyone—regardless of socioeconomic background—can join the movement to redefine workplace culture and well-being.
Our mission is made possible through the support of forward-thinking private-sector partners who share our vision of a more sustainable and resilient workforce. Together, we are building a future where thriving people drive thriving businesses. Let’s lead this transformation—because the future of work depends on it.
